Where are you getting this information from? While I am not a board member of the NPL I�m quite confident that USA didn�t prevent James Island from joining NPL. Keep in mind JIYSC falls under the GPS umbrella and GPS Carolina, as you�ve already stated, have a presence with US Club Soccer. GPS Girls not �getting� NPL this past year had zero to do with USA and everything to do with that girls team again being a challenge team.


This is completely wrong. Just FYI. This is well known to everyone involved. It may seem odd, but it is what it is. They don't want competition.


Re-thinking this, you may be right that the girls side was never going to be admitted the first year (based on competition), but the deck was stacked against them when one club actively lobbied to keep them out.
